Demand System* The demand system is designed to signi? cantly reduce rubbing resistance of moving parts and air resistance. The result is smoother and more natural valve opening/closing.

Light weight housing* The second stage main unit is smaller and lighter to reduce water resistance during diving, thus reducing the load on the face during use. The main body materialsare super-tough nylon (heat pliable polyamide resin) reinforced with glass ? ber foroutstanding hardness and shock resistance. The materials also offer superior tensilestrength, dimensional stability, heat resistance, weather resistance and chemical resistance.

Intake resistance* The second stage includes a director to forcibly guide air from the demand valve.That prevents free ? ow while signi? cantly lessening intake resistance. The result is

one of the lightest intake resistance values in the industry compared with productsfrom other companies.

New mouthpieceThe new mouthpiece, developed on the basis of ergonomic engineering, furtherenhances the comfort of bite, ? t, and stability. Even with a light bite, a high level ofstability is achieved, so there is no fatigue from long periods of usage.
